As we end another year, another chapter in our lives, people from all over reflect on their year in hopes for an even better future ahead by either conversation or social media. Along with these hopes for another blessed and fulfilling year the topic of a New Year's Resolution comes into play in just about everyone's lives. Everyday people from all over the world set goals and tasks to accomplish in their future lives whether it be short or long term accomplishments. The idea of a New Year's Resolution is to further push into one's mind that they can accomplish either a small goal of their's or their biggest dreams in the span of just a year.
Though you may hear many people setting their resolutions as the clock hits midnight and the year changes, but how often do you really hear of someone you know actually striving to keep and finish out their year by accomplishing the resolution they set at the beginning of the year? That's right, you hardly ever hear of someone losing the weight they desperately felt they needed to, or finally quitting their job and going back to school, or accomplishing something as small as running once a week. It is all of these things, as well as many more, that people set in their minds as yearly goals to accomplish when in reality only rarely maintain for a month or two.
The idea behind setting a New Year's Resolution is over all to become a "New You" or create a new image of yourself. Well in order to become a new person or a new representation of yourself you don't need to set elaborate goals so unrealistic that you know you most likely won't maintain them. Things take time and not everyone can set a huge goal and stick to it. Some people need a push and small goals to work up to the big end goals they eventually want to strive towards.
So, during this New Year if you are looking to improve upon yourself and who you want to be in the future don't conform to the unrealistic idea of setting a huge goal at the first of the year and accomplishing it in just a short amount of time. If you wish to accomplish something within the next year set small goals you feel confident you can accomplish and be proud of. Happy New Year to all and have a blessed and fulfilling year and future.
